Forward Chess transforms the way you engage with chess literature, offering the convenience of having a book and a chessboard right in the palm of your hand!

Forward Chess is more than just an interactive chess book reader; it's a comprehensive learning tool. Dive into the book, follow through the lines, and experiment with your own moves. Thanks to the integrated Stockfish engine, recognized as one of the world's strongest chess engines, you can instantly assess the book's recommendations or analyze your own variations. With Forward Chess, you carry a book, a chessboard, and a robust analysis tool all at once, seamlessly in your hand!

The app's ergonomic design is a standout feature. Forward Chess engineers have crafted intuitive "Previous" and "Next" buttons for easy navigation through moves, complemented by a one-touch snap-to-position feature that lets you instantly jump to any move. The resizable diagrams are designed to be easy on the eyes, enhancing your reading experience.

For extensive navigation, Forward Chess excels in providing smooth transitions. You can directly jump to specific chapters, scroll effortlessly within chapters, and navigate through complex trees of variations without hassle.

Enhancing your study further, Forward Chess now supports note-taking functions, allowing you to create, edit, and delete notes. Additionally, the app accommodates multiple bookmarks per book, making it easier to revisit key sections.

Forward Chess collaborates with premier chess publishers such as Quality Chess, Chess Stars, Russell Enterprises, Chess Informant, New In Chess, and Mongoose Press. Their latest titles are readily available for purchase in the Forward Chess bookstore, alongside a selection of free sample books for a quick "test drive."
